He went on and won a seat in Urban Council, representing Yau Tsim in the 1989 Urban Council election, where he served through the transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong until the abolishment of the Provisional Urban Council in 1999.

During the time, Wong joined the pro-democratic Hong Kong Association for Democracy and People's Livelihood (ADPL) and unsuccessfully challenged Frederick Fung's chairmanship in 1995, in which he and his supporters accused of Fung for taking the position of Hong Kong Affairs Advisers from the Beijing government.

Wong later quit the ADPL and joined the more radical The Frontier. He ran in the 2003 District Council election and was elected to the Wong Tai Sin District Council through Choi Wan East. He held onto the seat until he was defeated by Timothy Choy Tsz-kin of the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong (DAB) in 2015. During that time, Wong became the founding member of the League of Social Democrats (LSD) but later switched to the Democratic Party.

In the 2019 District Council election, Wong campaigned for District Councillor for the third time, running in Prince of the Kowloon City District Council.
